title: Treatment of root perforations with calcium hydroxide and SuperEBA cement: a clinical report.
abstract: Iatrogenic root perforations sometimes occur during root canal treatment or when preparing the root canal for a post. The inflammation in the periradicular tissues caused by root perforation reduces the prognosis of the involved tooth. The situation may be further complicated if by coronal leakage, microorganisms are allowed to infect the canal and the periradicular region. This clinical report presents a nonsurgical technique, based on the internal matrix concept, using both calcium hydroxide and SuperEBA together to repair root perforations. The author has experienced good clinical results with this perforation repair technique.
